Chineses in the Diaspora
Multilingual Practices and Chinese Identity in Los Angeles
Samenvatting
This book analyzes the multilingual and multidialectal practices of Chinese Americans in Los Angeles, describing the interaction of distinct Chineses in a diasporic setting. It demonstrates how ethnolinguistic repertoires are used to form localized Chinese identities and world Chineses with different degrees of divergence from standard Putonghua.
